It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe Learn the art of sewing by experimenting with materials and basic sewing machine skills while creating fun holiday decorations. This class is designed to give students an introduction to sewing, machine safety, basic stitching, and fabric arts. Students will create 7-9 fun fabric holiday projects that challenge their artistic abilities for Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday decor. Your student is expected to use machines and sharp tools in a safe way and be able to follow directions.
Each student will have the opportunity of creating a variety of projects throughout the multi day/week long course. Projects are designed to take the student through the entirety of the making and sewing process.
Examples of the projects we will be creating:
Halloween Gnomes, Halloween Plushies, Trick-or-Treat Bags, Pumpkin Pot Holder, Fabric Turkey, Fabric Owl, Fabric Braided Wreath, Fabric Santa, Fabric Snowman
Classes will be held at New Brighton Middle School, Thursday afternoons from 3:30-5:30, 10/12-12/21
